Wild Lands
Highlighting the delicate detail and diversity of our heathland and wallum ecosystems, this lino print captures a beautiful scene in Noosa National Park overlooking Lake Weyba.
The foreground captures the strength and beauty of a female Red-tailed Black Cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus banksii). She watches, a gentle guardian of the landscape. A Glossy Black-Cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus lathami lathami) safely feeds on an Allocasuarina, an important feed tree for this species.
A diversity of banksias and grass trees make up the detail of the heath vegetation, which merges with the forests in the distance down to Lake Weyba. A flock of black cockatoos fly peacefully overhead.
Mountains distinct to the Noosa Hinterland form the silhouette in the background, drifting into the burnt sienna sunset.
It is still and serene.
In a world where our presence encroaches on the natural world rather than being a symbiotic dance (as it has been in the past), ‘Wild Lands’ invites contemplation on what it takes to protect and coexist with our remaining wild spaces.
This linocut took 83 hours to illustrate and carve. Each print takes about an hour to prepare the paper and hand press.
Due to the limited space in my studio I can only hand print a small number of these large prints at once. Each print will be lovingly prepared once your payment has been received, and will take around 10 days to dry. It will then be packaged and shipped to you.
I will be in touch with you each step of the way to keep you informed on the progress of your artwork.
